A drifter identified as 59-year-old John Russel Houser shot and killed two people and wounded nine others at a theater in Lafayette, Louisiana. He then turned the gun on himself, police say.

Schumer wrote"Trainwreck" and stars in it as a promiscuous magazine writer who begins to rethink her lifestyle. The movie grossed $30 million last weekend when it opened.
